It makes it easier to connect the old devices easily with the network without the overhead of manually assigning the IP addresses for the constantly changing clients like schools, offices, etc. It allocates the temporary IP address for a particular lease time and changes the lease time of the clients according to the specific requirements. DNS which stands for Domain Name System is a decentralized naming system for the computers and other devices on the internet to translate the domain name of the devices connected on the internet or any other private network to the numerical IP addresses and vice versa.
It eliminates the need for the user to remember the IP address of each domain. It works somewhat like the telephone book with the provision of IP address of each domain name. DHCP is the time-saving and the fast process of configuring the IP address to the clients connected on the internet automatically instead of manually assigning them to each client whereas DNS facilitates the user to translate the domain name into an IP address without the headache of remembering the complex IP addresses.

Every time that you connect to a website you are actually using a DNS server whether you know it or not. A domain name is simply the official technical name for a website , so for example, the domain name of Wikipedia is wikipedia.
This is a more common term, and it acts like a unique identification number for each of your electronic devices. This IP address is important in DNS because the server needs to be able to correctly identify your device to properly connect you with the domain name that you are trying to reach.
It is not often that a DNS will mix up IP addresses, but if this happens simply refresh the screen of your device, and you will be good to go! As you may have guessed, DNS is a broad system as it functions on a high level connecting IP addresses all around the internet to websites. Since DNS is on a larger level, they are not only found in your home internet routers but are also at the base of internet companies.
It is safe to say that without those secure systems the internet would not function. On the other hand, the dynamic host configuration protocol DHCP is a network management protocol used on internet protocol IP local area networks , again according to Wikipedia.
An address resolving mechanism. DNS server is responsible for accepting the queries through client and responding back with the results. Working methodology Centralized Decentralized Features 1. Provide additional information such as IP addresses of the host and Subnet mask of the computer. Assigns IP to host for a particular lease time. Coverts symbolic names into IP address and vice-versa.
